White Christmas in Swedish Lapland
Enjoy a Christmas holiday that offers all the trimmings without any of the chores.
The fun begins on Christmas Eve with a sleigh ride through the forest to seek out the perfect tree. Warm up with hot chocolate and there will be a chance to meet the man himself, Santa Claus! Back at the hotel, the tree is decorated and with the festive scene set, the Christmas Smorgasbord will be served at a celebratory dinner this evening!
As Christmas morning dawns, spend time with your family opening presents in your cabin, before heading to a Christmas morning breakfast buffet. Later there is time for some fun in the snow with optional winter adventures. Dog sledging, snowmobiles, and snowshoes can all be on the agenda. Experience Sami culture on a reindeer farm, go in search of moose or visit the ICEHOTEL.
Boxing Day offers another chance for optional activities and you can round off the afternoon with an indulgent few hours of relaxation, combined with a little fun at Aurora Spa.
New Year Swedish Style
Bid farewell to 2024 and see in the New Year in beautiful Swedish Lapland with a sumptuous 4-course celebratory dinner. As you toast champagne by a crackling open fire, with luck Mother Nature’s own fireworks display will light up the night sky with the magical Northern Lights.
During this short break, the magic is not exclusive to New Year’s Eve, as you will spend your days enjoying the best of Swedish Lapland with optional winter activities. Included in your stay is a visit to the original ICEHOTEL and a traditional Swedish spa ritual at Aurora Spa. The rest of your time can be filled magical experiences, from dog sledding to reindeer sleigh rides. Maybe grab a sledge for some simple snow fun or head to the frozen lake for a spot of ice skating, the options are almost endless.
Whether you choose to celebrate Christmas or New Year here, you are sure to leave Lapland with memories to last a lifetime, although you may find you leave a little piece of your heart behind.
